Abstract
The multicell converter topology is said to possess a natural voltage balancing property. This paper models a 2-cell multicell converter. The switching and balancing properties of this converter is mathematically analyzed and presented. The balancing property of this converter is also proven mathematically from the presented properties and conditions for natural balancing are discussed.
